That should work, if we make sure the getpkgname function parses the 
filename properly.

I thought we had enough donation money left, if so, just get another 
hard drive.

Depends on what they sync. The "ftp" module contains "exclude = 
/archive/ /other/", while the "ftpfull"/"kitchensink" module doesn't 
have an exclude line. We could add exclude = /sources to kitchensink, 
ftpfull and ftp, so that they'd have to explicitly sync the "sources" 
module.
